Process Systems Enterprise Ltd and Pfizer Inc., today announced that they have formed the Systems-based Pharmaceutics Alliance (SbP Alliance). The Alliance also includes a second major pharmaceutical company.
The SbP Alliance aims to develop a single model-based framework for drug substance manufacturing, drug product manufacturing, oral absorption and pharmacokinetics. The Alliance will seek to establish best practices in the application of model-based techniques which will be incorporated in validated commercial-quality computer software for the solution of industrially-important problems.
To more rapidly meet the Alliance’s objectives, the partners are further exploring opportunities to partner with additional, interested companies.
